Famous quotes containing the words science and/or technology:

    “I’ve been asked to give some words of advice for young women entering library/information science education. Does anyone ever take advice? The advice we give is usually what we would do or would have done if we had the chance, and the advice that’s taken, if ever, is often what we wanted to hear in the first place.”
    —Phyllis Dain (b. 1930)

    “One can prove or refute anything at all with words. Soon people will perfect language technology to such an extent that they’ll be proving with mathematical precision that twice two is seven.”
    —Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
